2024-11-08 23:16:13“You fucker!” Mike pointed at Chris angrily. He held his nose, screaming in pain.
“Kill that bastard!” He ordered Reid and Ren.
Immediately, they all rushed forward tackling him to the ground. Chris’s body was used to clean the muddy floor of the court while they dealt him blows upon blows.
“Let me go! You bastards!” Chris didn’t relent as he struggled against them. He wanted to go free but they overpowered him.
“I will kill you!” Mike threw a punch straight at Chris’s neck and immediately he felt his body convulse.
Blood spurted out of Chris’s mouth as he began to shake uncontrollably.
“Is he dying?” Reid asked, seeing how he was shaking.
“Right! Let’s end him!” They continued the beatings.
At the same time, the sounds of police sirens resounded outside the court.
“Someone called the police!” One of the onlookers notified them. Reid, Ren, and Mike were quick to get their hands off Chris standing aside as three police officers rushed into the court.
“What is going on here?” They raised their guns, wanting to just scare them.
“School violence, I guess.” Another police officer answered as he looked around.
Chris’s body had already stopped convulsing, he was unconscious.
The police officers immediately rounded everyone into a corner and started to question them. One of them went to help Chris up, waking him up with splashing water.
“What happened here?” They started their questioning.
“That guy attacked Mike.”
“Yes! He rushed out of that storehouse and suddenly stopped Mike from confessing to his lover. He disrupted everything here.”
They started to put all the blame on Chris, no one supported him.
However, the police officers looked from Chris to everyone else. “It doesn't seem like that to us.” Chris looked more battered and now they turned their gaze on the said Mike.
“You see, officers.” Mike stepped forward, seeing they were suspicious of him. He then wiped the blood on his nose.”This guy certainly attacked me. My father, Mr. Moyes, would not like someone attacking his son, would he?”
“What?” The police officers were shocked. “You are Mr. Moyes's son? The richest man in the country?”
“Yes.” Mike was puffed with pride. “I guess you know what to do now?”
“Yes! Yes!” The police officers rushed to bow before Mike. “Forgive us for not recognizing you, Mr. Moyes. We will make up for it.”
“Good,” Mike smirked.
“Arrest that bastard!” They immediately arrested Chris who was already awake but weak. Before everyone, he was taken out and the confession moment continued.

“Let me out of here! I didn't do anything wrong!” Chris banged on the cell bars, wanting to get out. It had been hours since they locked him up and though he had been patient, the police officers were not attending to him.
Now, he couldn't wait anymore.
“Let me out!” He continued. He had regained his strength and though he was still in pain, he could at least demand his release.
“Will you shut up your mouth!” One officer marched toward him, banging his baton on the bars.
“Why? I should be out by now.” Chris countered.
“Oh, you want to be out?” The police officer sneered. “Your bail is $5000. Pay up and you will be out of here immediately.”
“What?” Chris was shocked and furious. “Why would you demand that much for a bail? Is this a fraud?”
“Don’t you have the money?” The officer was impatient. “If you don't have the money, then rot in there.”
He was about to leave when Chris stopped him, dragging his collar through the gaps in the cell bars.
“I didn't do anything wrong.” He glared, his eyes red. “Mike also attacked me. Why isn't he here? Huh?”
“You bastard! Let go of me!” The officer cracked Chris’s hand, releasing himself. “You attacked an officer of the law, you will pay for this.”
“Do you know why you are being kept here?” The officer yelled angrily. “It's because you are poor! Mike is Mr. Moyes’ son. And you, you are the son of nobody! Nobody is going to bail you out and I will make sure you rot here.”
“You piece of thrash!” The officer walked off.
Chris was left in his cell, feeling disappointed and angry. Why was the world against him? He was facing all these hurdles and hardships because he was poor! He realized that was why Melissa even denied him.
After all, who would want to identify with a poor man?
As he was lost deep in his thoughts, he heard footsteps and the door to his cell opened.
“What is it now?” Chris looked up and saw that it was another police officer.
“Chris Westminster, you can go now. Someone has paid your bail.”

“What do you think?” Chris’s dad, Jones Westminster smirked, spreading his arms like a king sitting on his throne.Chris had to rub his eyes repeatedly to confirm if he was seeing things or not. His dad was suddenly looking so regal and refined, unlike the poor man who struggled all his life.“Come here, son,” Jones called out to his son, standing up from the chair. Chris could only move slowly, his body stiff from the thoughts in his head. “Why are you here, Dad? Are you playing pretend in someone else’s house?” Chris asked with a displeased tone.

“This way…” Steve quickly led Chris out and toward a large open garage. The lights in the garage shined brightly and coupled with the flashy colors of the cars in there, he almost got blind.“Woahh…” Chris stood at the entrance, admiring the rows and rows of cars. “Just how much are these?” The car he rode in with Steve was small, compared to what he was seeing now.“Maybe a few dollars.” Steve shrugged like the cost of the cars was nothing. “We have a Porsche collection, Ferrari, BMW, Maybach, Rolls Royce, and a few others you can think of.”Steve was beaming with pride but on the other hand, Chris was in shock. All this was too surreal for him.“And all those belong to me?”“Yes. What car do you want? You can choose any.” Steve stretched his hand forward and Chris stepped forward, touching the cars with a hint of curiosity.

“What the fuck are you doing?” Chris glared at the tackily dressed man and swiftly, he took the man’s hand off him, throwing him off to another side. It was so easy for Chris to throw him off like he weighed nothing.“How dare you touch me!” The man was annoyed that he was easily tackled and he went for Chris again, aiming to throw a punch. However, Chris was quick to dodge making the crazy man punch the air.“You are testing my patience.” Chris was growing furious. He was still trying to be civil because he had somewhere to go and he didn’t want to embarrass himself in a public space but this crazy man wasn’t about to let him go.“And what the fuck are you going to do?

Do you know who I am?” The man pointed a finger at Chris with a condescending gaze, “I am Bastien, haven’t you heard of that name around here before?”Chris’s patience was wearing thin, he was past the time when he would let people bully him and now that he had his father’s backing, he was fearless.

Bastien swallowed a big lump in his throat seeing the menacing look in Chris’s eyes. He took several steps back, and said shakily, “Don’t scare me, little boy.”However, his back hit one of the men in black and he staggered to the side. “Hey! Apologize!” He snarled but then the man didn't even spare him a glance as he walked up to meet Chris. He seemed to be the boss and he bowed before Chris, “Hello, Young Master Chris. I hope we didn't delay for too long.”“Nahh… it’s alright.” Chris waved his hand in dismissal. “What’s your name?”“Mason, young master.” Mason straightened up and then his eyes zeroed in on Bastien who had his mouth gaped in shock. “How do you want us to punish the man who offended the heir of the Westminster family, young master?” “What?” Bastien let out in shock and not only was he shocked, but the car insurance expert was also shocked. “Little kid!

“What are you saying?” Chris felt a burst of anger and he frowned, displeased. “I am not a beggar and don’t look like one. You are the one who shouldn’t be in this store since you can’t be respectful to other buyers.”The rush from his encounter with Bastien was still registered in his mind and he wouldn't let another person try to insult him again. “You!” Mrs. Wales was shocked that he talked back at her. “You dare to talk back? You dare talk to me about respect?” She shouted, and even pointed her fingers, poking Chris in the head.“Can you see anyone dressed like you in here? Is this someplace where you can walk into just as you please?” Her pokes moved from his head to his chest as she almost dug her sharp nails into his flesh.Even the female attendant, did a double take at Chris to really see if he was dressed as a beggar, and to her, it was kind of true.“Get your hands off me.” Chris took a step back, slapping her wrist away from his sight.“And what if I don’t?” Mrs. Wales st

Gareth’s head was down low and all he could see was his boss’ shiny shoes. A proud man a while ago was now bowing like a dog. However, his boss didn't even pay any heed to his greetings. He walked past Gareth and went to stand before Chris. “Kid, can I see that badge again?” He asked. Chris looked from the man to the gold badge. His father had told him this could be used anywhere to declare his family status, had someone finally recognized the badge?“First, tell me who you are.” Chris didn't show the badge to him. He wanted to be sure this man was a really sensible person, or else he ran the risk of being embarrassed again about his badge. “Oh, my bad.” The dignified man chuckled. “I am Alexander McQueen, owner of the McQueen brand. I own this mall. I used to work with the Westminster family and I know that badge.” “Oh, really?” Chris raised his brows, he was impressed. At least, this man knew about the Westminster badge.

On the other side of the city, Reid woke up in an abandoned warehouse with his clothes covered in blood and sweat. The last thing he recalled was the way he followed Chris from the party hall.

He felt jealous and vexed when Chris hot to sit with the Rice family all because he was the heir of the Westminster family.

Chris wasn't satisfied with the vague information his father had given him. If there was a deep grudge between the families, he wanted to know. However, he was being pushed to the forefront of the battle without any clue. “Chris?” Jones called out, wanting an answer. “I am not interested.” Chris hissed and in the next second, he walked back to his bedroom. He had planned to leave home to work that morning and he did just that. He could bury his head in work and forget about the baggage around him. Thirty minutes later, Chris was ready for work and he walked out to meet his father in the same position he left him in. “I see you are ready to leave...” Jones took a proud look at his son. But still, Chris gave no heed to his father’s words. But Jones didn't mind, he knew Chris would soon come to terms with what he was saying. “Prepare, Chris.

Chris went still and the wind outside the mansion blew so loud that everyone could hear. No one said a word and even Ria knew to keep her mouth shut. However, Mia started to weep so loud since the silence was eating up her soul. “I am sorry, Chris. I had to do it… I had to save my family.” She cried. “Now, I regret it so much–”“Shut up! You bitch!” Ria snarled. “There is no amount of begging that will make Chris forgive your useless ass. It’s too late to beg for forgiveness. If you were so sorry, why didn't you tell him everything that happened?”Mia couldn't refute Ria’s words. But deep down, she knew she had tried to do things her own way. From pushing Chris away and not trying to get close to him. However, she ended up getting close to him because he was the only one who came to her aid when she got in trouble with her parents and Reid. “I am sorry…” She whispered. “Chris, what are you going to do to her?

“What?” Chris frowned, in total confusion. “What are you saying?” He stared at Ria intently, expecting her to speak up but she only burst into more tears. The elegant Ria was no more and it only left a lady that was saddled with too many negative emotions while she tried to catch the eye of the person she wanted the most. “I…” She stuttered, crouching to the floor while she wiped her tears. The pain from her wrist caused her to wince in pain and she was overwhelmed with a sense of grief and hate. “I waited for you at the hospital. I harmed myself, just to see you but you didn't show up…” She cried. “I thought you brought me back home to give me a new life and here I was, hoping that I would see your face again.”“I was ready to do whatever, for you to see me in a new light again…” Her lips quivered as her voice shook. “But no… that wasn't your plan. You brought me back here to suffer. You wouldn't even look at me and all through you had your gaze on that bitch!”“That traitor!” Ri

Chris walked away from Baron and seeing that it was futile to speak to Chris, Baron slowly slipped back into his car. He was so annoyed that Chris had to ignore him but he was now hellbent on getting Chris's attention. There were a lot of things he needed to achieve and with Chris by his side, he would do better. Swiftly, he took out his phone and texted an undercover agent who usually worked for him. He wanted to do a background check on Chris and he needed it under 24 hours. On the other hand, Chris had reached Rico Axe and Mia who was still shaking in fear on the hard road. She looked pale as a ghost and she cried to Chris to get her out of there. She didn't want to see Reid’s bloody face as it reminded her of a lot of unpleasant memories. “We will be leaving soon. We have requested for a car to come pick us up.” Chris assured her and she nodded slowly. All she did throughout the time they waited was to stay by Chris's side, not daring to look at Reid.When the car finally ar

Reid never expected the car that crashed into him. It came from nowhere, where he wasn't even looking. He thought he had cornered Chris and he could finally have Chris in his grasp but he thought wrong. “Oh fuck” Reid coughed blood due to the impact he got from the other car. However, the other car didn't stop. It reversed and was aiming for Reid’s car again. Reid knew he had to get out of the car as soon as possible, or else, he would die instead of Chris. Swiftly, he took out the seat belt and flew out of the car before there was another impact. Bang!The impact came when he rolled to the floor, his hands and legs enduring scratches from the hard ground. At the same time, he watched his car roll down the highway, falling off the bridge. At that moment, he felt his life flash before his eyes and he wondered when things went wrong. When will he finally get back at Chris? When?He stood up to his feet, wiping the blood off his face.

He didn't care if he had to lick Chris’ feet, all he knew was that he wanted to be the top and Chris was going to help him achieve that. “You can go in now…” Chris said as he got to his car with Mia. He opened the car door for Mia to get in and soon they drove off with Walker still standing behind. However, they didn't notice that Baron had also slipped out of the party hall into his car and he followed after Chris.On the other hand, Chris was silent in the car while Mia stared at him with a gaze filled with admiration. Her breath hitched, seeing Chris in a new light. “When are you going to stop looking at me?” Chris sneered. “Well… maybe never…” Mia shook her head and shrugged her shoulders. “I never knew you were so strong.”“If you knew, what would change?” Chris snickered. “Well…nothing.” She shook her head again but then she didn't turn her gaze away from him still. “I just fel
Strife
Knock!Knock!!Two organized knocks resounded on the door and Chade immediately went to check on who it was. For a moment, he hesitated going back to the Chairman with what he had just received because the Chairman would surely rage in anger. But this would solidly solidify that Jones was planning something. He took the box from the messenger and went back to the Chairman. This time, he didn't bow because he had somehow crossed that boundary and there was no need to go back. “Chairman, there is a package from the Westminster family. It’s says it’s a present to you…” Chase read out the card attached to the package. When he looked up at the Chairman, he realized Gerald’s whole demeanor had changed. One thing Gerald hated was receiving gift packages from guests. The reason behind that was unknown to Chase or anyone in the family. “That Jones is definitely brazen…” Gerald sneered, trying to tone down his anger and hatred. He looked straight at the package with no ounce of emotion.

The Rice family mansion. The Chairman and patriarch of the Rice family stood before a large LED screen with footage of the party playing on it. He had watched the moment Chase was subdued by Chris and he had also watched when Albert was rushed out of the party hall. Now, he had his eyes on Chris, with a confused gaze. “An heir of the Westminster? Where did he come from?” Chairman Gerald groaned in displeasure. He had made several and deep investigations into Jones Westminster over the years and he never thought that Jones had a son. If he knew, he wouldn't have…His thoughts were interrupted when he heard a knock on the door. “Chairman…” Chase walked in from the door, with his head bowed as he couldn't dare to stand straight up before the Chairman after what had happened. It was a disgrace. “Are you sure he is the Westminster’s son?” Gerald asked, tapping his fingers on the armrest of the chair he was on. “I am still making investigations, Chairman,” Chase said, his lips quiv
